The Rose That We Call Love

The rose starts from a tiny seed and sprouts above the ground.

Toiling among the many weeds to make it's plant strong and sound.

The flower that blooms is very elegant, but delicate as well..

For any tiny tear can leave a nasty, nasty trail.

Love is very much the same as it starts from a tiny seed.

Friendship grows within our hearts, then love replaces the deed.

Then friendship itself has not grown away, but grown into a lovely bloom,

Very elegant and delicate as well, as our hearts emerge from their cocoons.

Nurture the rose that grows within you, water it, give it light, give it love.

And don't forget to share the bloom with the planter of the seed...
